    Description: In this paper experiments in which cross-waves were generated in front of a wave-maker at one end of a long channel are described. The primary field produced was a progressive wave train, but, at certain frequencies, a standing wave developed in front of the wavemaker. This wave, whose crests were at right angles to the wavemaker and which had frequency half that of the wavemaker, is known as a cross-wave. An instability mechanism for the formation of cross-waves in a long channel has been presented in Part 1 (Mahony 1972). In the present paper we describe some measurements concerning the formation of the waves. The initial growth rate of the waves has been measured and the curves of neutral stability determined for two of the possible modes. The results are in good agreement with Mahony's theory. After the early stages in the development of the waves, there is an increase in their growth rate. This new rate was found to be about twice the initial growth rate. Also reported are some measurements of the amplitude of the cross-wave field along the channel. © 1972, Cambridge University Press. All rights reserved.

    Description: The objectives of this study were to determine whether the addition of drag-reducing macromolecules alters the structure of the viscous sublayer and thereby modifies the production of kinetic energy in turbulent wall flows. This was accomplished by visualizing the near-wall region of a fully developed two-dimensional channel flow. Motion pictures were taken of dye injected into the near-wall region. Both water and a dilute drag-reducing polyethylene oxide-FRA solution were used as working fluids. The motion pictures were analysed to determine the spanwise spacing and the bursting rate of low-speed streaks that are characteristic of the viscous sublayer. The amount of drag reduction was established from pressure-drop measurements in pipe flows and a correlation that is independent of hydraulic diameter. The data show that the time between bursts for an individual streak in a drag-reducing flow has the value for a water flow at the reduced wall shear. However, both the physical and the non-dimensional streak spacing is significantly increased in the drag-reducing flows and thus the spatially averaged bursting rate is decreased. This evidence strongly suggests that the dilute polymer solution decreases the production of turbulent kinetic energy by inhibiting the formation of low-speed streaks. A tentative explanation for this behaviour which is based upon the solution's high resistance to elongational strains and vortex stretching is offered. © 1972, Cambridge University Press.

    Notes: As of this date, tri-segmented intra-aortic balloons made from Avcothane-51 elastomer were applied in the counterpulsation treatment of about 80 cardiac patients. The combined effects induced by the implanted elastomer and the hemodynamics of pumping are analyzed by means of hematologic changes observed in a set of 28 patients who were treated at the Massachusetts General Hospital for an average period of about 4 days, and represent a widely diversified group in terms of their clinical conditions. In no case were, any significant adverse hematologic effects induced by this assist device whether the hosts had been anticoagulated or not heparinized at all. While platelet levels were somewhat affected by the assist device, the particular conditions of the patient appear to have an effect of at least, equal magnitude. In addition to platelet levels steadily decreasing with pumping time, changes in platelet levels similar to the pattern of “platelet tide” occurred with about equal frequency. Monitored in terms of erythrocyte counts and plasma hemoglobin levels, no significant degree of hemolysis could be detected. Leukocyte counts in patients having above-normal levels at the beginning of pumping returned to normal while in other cases there were no significant changes. Fibrinogen, one of the plasma proteins most sensitive to foreign surfaces, showed levels increasing from subnormal to normal as a function of pumping time. The overall in vivo performance of Avcothane-51 balloons appers to be consistent with the state of the surfaces of recovered devices, showing only the presence of occasional adherent platelets upon examination by scanning electron microscopy.

    Description / Table of Contents: Im Temperaturbereich von 60 bis 100°C wird die radikalische Polymerisation von Styrol, Methylmethacrylat und Acrylnitril von α.α′-Dicyanodibenzylen ausgelöst, die in α-und α′-Stellung mit Ester-, Nitril-, Amid- oder Phenylgruppen disubstituiert sind. Bei 100 bis 110°C ist auch das α.α.α′.α′-Tetracarboxymethyldibenzyl aktiv. Vinylacetat und Vinylchlorid werden durch diese Initiatoren kaum polymerisiert.Fur die Polymerisation des Styrols wurden die Bruttogeschwindigkeitskonstanten Kp, für viele Dibenzyle und fur Peroxide vergleichbarer Aktivitat dilatornetrisch bestirnrnt. Norrnalerweise sind die Zeit-Urnsatz-Kurven rnit den Dibenzylen und den Peroxiden vergleichbar; das Tetracyanodibenzyl allerdings bewirkt nur eine unvollstandige Polymerisation.Der große Einfiuß von Substituenten in α-Stellung oder in den Phenylringen der Dibenzyle auf die Polymerisation des Styrols wird diskutiert. Dabei ist auch die Stereochernie wichtig. Die meso-Form des Dinitrildiesters ergibt eine 2.5- bis 3.5 ma1 schnellere Polyrnerisation als das dl-Isornere.Die Dissoziationsgeschwindigkeitskonstanten kd der Initiatoren wurden NMR-spektroskopisch aus der Linienbreite bestirnmt. Die Dinitrildiester sind gute Initiatoren, wahrend die α.α′-Dicyanodibenzyle rnit weiteren Nitril- oder Phenylgruppen in α- und α′-Stellung wenig geeignet sind. SchlieBlich wurde die 1.2-Addition einiger der Dibenzyle an Styrol im Ternperaturbereich von 120 bis 150°C rnit der Methode der chernisch induzierten KernPolarisation (CIDNP) untersucht.
    Notes: The radical polymerization of styrene, methyl methacrylate and acrylonitrile is initiated by α.α′-dicyanodibenzyls α.α′-disubstituted with ester, nitrile, amide or phenyl groups in the temperature range 60 to 100°C and by α.α.α′.α′-tetracarboxymethyldibenzyl at 100 to 110°C. Vinylacetate and vinylchloride show a low reactivity.The overall polymerization rate constants Kp have been determined dilatometrically for styrene initiated by a large number of dibenzyls and comparable peroxides. The styrene polymerization curves are generally comparable with those of peroxides. A notable exception is tetracyanodibenzyl.The strong influence of α- and ring-substituents in the dibenzyls on the styrene polymerization rate is discussed. The stereochemistry is also important : the meso α.α′-dicyanodibenzyls α.α′-disubstituted with ester groups give a 2.5 to 3.5 fold faster polymerization than their dl isomers.The initiator efficiency is related to the kd values, determined from NMR line width measurements. The α.α′- dicyanodibenzyls α.α′-disubstituted with ester groups are good initiators, while those with phenyl groups and nitrile groups are inefficient.Relevant to initiation and termination, the 1.2-addition of some of the dimers to styrene at 120 to 150°C has been studied with chemically induced dynamic nuclear polarization (CIDNP).

    Description / Table of Contents: Polarographic studies on cobalt chelate complexesThe influence of penta-dentate ligands on the redox pair Co2+/Co3+ in chelate complexes of derivatives of salicyl aldehyde has been investigated by polarography. A linear correlation between E1/2 and the s̰m values of the substituents suggests, that electronic exchange between the substituents of the aromatic ring and the metal atom occurs mainly via the azomethine group. The stronger the delocalization of the electrons into the aromatic bond system, the greater is the shift of the redox potentials in anodic direction. The amine ligands also influence the behaviour of the metal complexes.
    Notes: Es wurde der Einfluß fünfzähniger Liganden auf das Redoxpaar Co2+/Co3+ in Chelatkomplexen von Derivaten des Salicylaldehyds polarographisch untersucht. Eine lineare Beziehung zwischen E1/2 und den s̰m-Werten der Substituenten legt nahe, daß der elektronische Austausch zwischen den Substituenten im aromatischen Ring und dem Metallatom vor allem über die Azomethingruppe erfolgt. Je größer die Delokalisierung der Elektronen auf das aromatische Bindungssystem ist, um so stärker ist die Verschiebung der Redoxpotentiale in anodischer Richtung. Die Aminliganden beeinflussen ebenfalls das Verhalten der Metallkomplexe.

    Description: An accelerating liquid drop, under the action of surface tension, is shown to be unstable to small disturbances above a first critical value of the Bond number. Both numerical and second-order asymptotic methods are employed in order to characterize the normal-mode response and the neutral-stable modes at larger values of the Bond number. The transient response of an initially spherical drop that is accelerated by the flow of an external gas is studied as an initial-value problem. A unified theory, that includes acceleration as well as aerodynamic effects, is presented in order to account for the complete dynamic range of Weber and Bond numbers. The results are compared with experimental observations that range from continuous vibration to irreversible aerodynamic distortion and unstable shattering. © 1972, Cambridge University Press.

    Description: SUMMARYThirty-two beef calves (mean body weight 79 kg) were given a ration which depleted their body reserves of Na as was evidenced by a narrow Na to K ratio in the parotid saliva. Eight calves were then assigned to each of the following four treatments: low Na basal ration alone, basal ration plus either 1·09, 2·19 or 3·28 g Na/calf/day as bicarbonate.

    Description: SUMMARYFor phase I of a rotational grazing experiment (three grazing cycles; May–July) a group of nine cows (group S) were ‘conditioned’ to eat fouled herbage by being allowed to graze only on slurry-treated pasture (area 1), and two further groups of nine (groups H and C) grazed on an adjacent area (2) of untreated pasture. One-third of area 2 was harrowed after each grazing. During phase II (the fourth grazing cycle; August) group H grazed on the harrowed part and groups S and C grazed on the remainder of area 2. The herbage allowance was 15 kg dry matter per cow per day in phase I and 12 kg in phase II.In phase I, group S cows ate significantly less than groups C and H combined (9·2 v. 10·5 kg organic matter per day), and lost weight (– 0·37 v. + 0–03 kg/day), but their milk yields were not significantly lower (16·1 v.16–6 kg/day). In phase II neither intake nor milk yield differed significantly between the three groups, but group S cows gained weight while the other two groups lost weight.It was concluded that neither conditioning the cows nor harrowing the pasture was an effective means of avoiding rejection of fouled pasture.
